It is painfully clear to the American people that Secretary Buttigieg has little regard for the duties of the Secretary of Transportation,” Rubio writes in the letter sent to the White House.
Sen. Marco Rubio penned a letter to President Biden on Thursday demanding that he fire Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg over his handling of the train derailment that dumped toxic chemicals in East Palestine, Ohio, earlier this month.
The Florida Republican argued in the letter that Buttigieg’s response to derailment is just the latest example of behavior that demonstrates a “gross level of incompetence and apathy” that is putting the safety of Americans at risk. “For two years, Secretary Buttigieg downplayed and ignored crisis after crisis, while prioritizing topics of little relevance to our nation’s transportation system. It is painfully clear to the American people that Secretary Buttigieg has little regard for the duties of the Secretary of Transportation,” Rubio writesResidents within a mile of the accident site in East Palestine, Ohio, were ordered to evacuate as a fire emitting toxic smoke burned.
